As many as 8 in 10 married women have changed their surname & no longer have birth certificates or passports to match their current legal name. The SAVE Act will strip these women of voting rights. In Virginia alone 1.8 million. In 50 States??? Tell your Senators. Oppose SAVE Act now: bit.ly/4hZ7BK7

Adolf Hitler's “Mein Kampf” is still on U.S. Naval Academy shelves. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” and “Memorializing the Holocaust” are not. An order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office led to a purge of books that are critical of racism — but preserved volumes defending white power.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Update: The House just passed the Republican voter suppression measure that threatens voting access for millions of Americans, including 69 million women whose married names don't match their birth certificates. Make sure your senators know you expect them to stand against it.

What do I always say? Look at what he's distracting from. Republicans are about to make it harder for married women who took their husband's name to vote, alongside troops serving overseas. This is a dictatorial move, and you can't fall for all this tariff nonsense.

At the front of the room, a table housed photos of victims of violence, their faces lit by candlelight. More than 40 people attended the event, ranging in age and background. One mother wore her child’s face on her shirt, another on her necklace.

As a criminal defense attorney, the vast majority of my cases were NOT immigrants. So let's stop pretending immigrants are the problem when there's a 34-count convicted felon sitting in the White House. The hypocrisy is outrageous.

The SAVE ACT will disenfranchise millions. Estimates are that 69 million women who changed their names upon marriage will not be able to register without a passport or birth certificate. CALL (202) 224-3121 or send a message. Tell Congress to VOTE NO: www.lwv.org/take-action/...

The economy is in free fall. The markets are collapsing. Our soldiers are dying. Our sensitive information is being leaked over text message and gmail. Random people are being kidnapped and sent to foreign torture prisons. And Trump is fucking golfing.
